I have a duplex with two electric meters but a single gas and a single water meter.

Our last bill was 5 therms and 415 KWH.

Our summer time natural gas use is $2.78 per month plus $10.25 in connection fees giving a total of $13 per month for natural gas (water heater), in the winter that bumps up to around $70 to $150 depending on how cold it is.
Electrical is a pretty steady $70 per month, a little higher in the winter because of the furnace fan drawing 600 watts every time it kicks on and we have two meter fees of $8 each.
We also pay an extra $0.013684 per KWH for "wind source" wind power.

Total for us comes out to $0.18 per KWH after all of the meter fees.

Our water bill for 3 months is $59 for water and sewer for 8228 gallons, that includes watering the garden and three adults in the house.
